Ghana’s players made Darwin Nunez the subject of their fury after the Liverpool striker was seen aiming a stomp towards the penalty spot.
Some fans online seemed to feel that the Uruguayan had aimed his effort at one of the opposition’s boots, though it was made clear in the halftime commentary that the venue was the 23-year-old’s intended target, as the 64m pounds were looking to make Andre Ayew’s task is much more difficult.
Diego Alonso’s men currently sit 2-0 ahead of the second half (at the time of writing).
